Would CO2 laser for darkness under eyes caused by lack of sleep be permanent for a young person?

At home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (MTS roller with anteage MD ampules) should be started now. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat will such as lower eyelid blepharoplasty with or without fat pad repositioning will be the best long term. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles without surgery. Non invasive less downtime options such as fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella​), lasers (Moxi/Halo/Fraxel/CO2​), Renuvion (J-Plasma), microneedling/PRP, stem cells and microneedling RF like Fractora PiXel8 or Morpheus can all help give some improvement. Accutite can often be used or stronger lasers like erbium or co2 spot treatment can tighten the skin and give very quick improvement in wrinkles and texture. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat might be the best solution long-term. I suggest you get a formal consultation to see what is best for you and your goals. Best, Dr. Emer.

CO2 laser resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that can be used to treat a variety of skin issues, including dark under-eye circles, fine lines, and wrinkles. It works by using a high-energy beam of light to remove the outer layer of skin and stimulate the production of collagen, which can improve the overall appearance of the skin.

While CO2 laser resurfacing can provide long-lasting results, it is important to note that it is not a permanent solution. The results of the treatment can vary from person to person, and factors such as genetics, lifestyle habits, and aging can all contribute to the recurrence of the problem.

It is also important to note that CO2 laser resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure and should only be performed by a licensed and experienced medical professional. It is essential to have a consultation with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon to discuss your individual situation, including any medical conditions or medications that could impact the safety or effectiveness of the procedure.

Best of luck !
